Weekly competition 2010-09

3x3x3 Fewest Moves: 43 moves
Solution: 2x2x2: F' U' F2 B L U' L B' D' L D L' D2 U' L' U D' B2 D B L D L2 D2 B D B' L2 R' L2 B F U' F' D F' D F' U F2 D2 B' R

Explanation:
2x2x2: F' U' F2 B L U'
2x2x3: L B' D' L D L' D2
F2L minus 1 slot + 2 CE pairs: U' L' U D' B2 D B
Pseudo tripod + CE pair: L . D L2 D'
All but 3 twisted corners: D' B D B' L2
Fix corners: R' B (B' L2 B F U' F' D F' D F' U F2 D2) B' R
Corner fix could have been done as an insertion, but I was running out of time.

EDIT: Doing corner fix with insertion gets a solution of only 36 moves!
Insert at ".": B2 U2 F U' B U' B U' F' U D L2 D' (5 moves cancel)
Fixing corners in 8 extra moves instead of 15 extra moves reduces solution from 43 to 36.

Congratz Teemu, with your beautiful 25-mover.
(And 'rio too of course)
I got a 30 moves solution in ±30 minutes, had no time to finish the hour and then I was too late to post it.

FMC: DNF. 17 move F2L but couldn't find anything that would get me sub-35 so gave up (1 hour was up anyway). EDIT: Turns out my F2L was the same as Stini and 'rio. I didn't know that LL alg so couldn't take advantage of that :(

Time to learn some LL-algs, this one was pretty basis. Didn't you Fridrich-guys use this alg for OLL?

I certainly didn't try to claim to have a 17 move solution, as the below post shows. I confused the program by having a DNF and a 17 move F2L. Sorry! Can I have a DNF instead?

Nice solve! Awesome F2L-1! I never saw that during my attempt.
A suggestion: Try L B' L' B D' B2 D B2 L B2 L' B' D' B2 D B2 (16-1=15) after the F2L-1. Leaves 3 corners+ 1 move cancels. Then insertion :)

Heh, cheers :)
Yeah, if it can't be done during F2L, doing EO and pair-building simultaneously is probably a better idea than keeping them separate.

Amusing :) (and sorry, totally my fault). Now you have a DNF instead.

(I could not get it either at first, but this bug must be corrected. The reason seems to be the dot after the DNF. It is the same bug that made Mats V not get results when he wrote XXmoves in one word.)

@Bruce: thanks for first spotting.
 
Huh? Damn. Over already. I was away all weekend. I did a lot of events and had crazy 3x3 for me, it was something like, 15.05, 12.00 (PLL skip), and a bunch of "okay" solves like 19 19 and 24 or something. It was 18 average. I had really good events. When is the comp going to be on the wed/thurs night change again?

It's currently about a half week behind (meaning you're getting more than a week to do each competition). I'm sure we'll eventually get it caught up - I hope that when we do, we'll move it up by a day or so per week until we're back to normal. And I think normal should be Thurs/Fri night change instead of Wed/Thurs night change, since that's what it was at the beginning of the year.

This competition starts now and ends wednesday/thursday nightchange (officialy), but I will only close a competition after the new one is on-line. If a competition doesn't start at wednesday/thursday nightchange you still get the full 7 days to participate.
